Review 4 of 7
Price Paid:
$5.00
from B&H Photo Summary: Royal Gold 1000 is always in my case, I never leave home without at least two rolls of the stuff handy. I purchase the 24 exp box which allows me the opportunity to change films and or shoot a 12 shot event. Processing for me takes place at Sam's Club, where they do a great job and actually check out/push or whatever is needed to make the prints good.
You can check out some of my work @ http://www.csuohio.com/Photos Strengths: This film is great for meetings and other events where a flash would make you look stupid and or stop the action. Also fantastic for sports and other inside events. I find that this film actually performs better under really bad flourescent lighting. LOL
My local retailer wanted $7 a roll for this film, which was a bit above my budget, however a call to B&H showed that I could get it for $5.29 per roll plus shipping and have it in 2 days or less.
Weaknesses: Not too great with flash added for some reason, it seems to perfom better in low light. Similar Products Used: Fuji 1600 is my other film of choice, however it does not perform as well as the Kodak Royal Gold 1000 does overall. Customer Service: Kodak Customer service always gives personal information rather than being stuck in a computer (Press 1 to hear, Press 2 to ....) You get to talk to a real person at Kodak.
